September Newsletter - Rangatahi getting involved!
24 September 2026
It’s been a busy few months at Youth Hub Chch, with our new Events Centre buzzing with events, hui and creative workshops for rangatahi. It's been so lovely watching them build friendships, confidence and develop newfound passions.
We’ve also loved seeing fresh street art pop up around campus through our free youth programme. A big thanks to the Rātā Foundation and Christchurch City Council’s Creative Communities Scheme for helping make these opportunities possible. Mental health starts with wellbeing and a sense of belonging - and finding new passions helps young people to feel a sense of hope and enjoyment.
As we look ahead, we’re asking our supporters to help create a lasting future for Canterbury’s young people for Wills Month. Every gift, big or small, helps us work towards our next stages, including a drop-in centre with toilet and shower facilities, creative spaces, a training café and 10 supported homes for families and young people not suited to flat sharing. Creating a safe space to call home and a chance to rebuild their lives has a lasting impact on rangatahi at risk of homelessness.
We really value you as supporters, your financial help directly impacts the safety and wellbeing of the young people who come through our doors.
Ngā mihi for everything you do!
